Request Summary (Agenda Caption):
title
Request for approval of an interlocal agreement with the Harris County Water Control and Improvement District No. 159 for construction of drainage facilities within the Upper Langham Creek Frontier Program (Addicks Reservoir and Cypress Creek Watersheds, Project ID U100-00-00-E009, Agreement No. 2025-61, Precincts 3 and 4).

Background and Discussion:
The Upper Langham Creek Frontier Program provides regional detention benefit for new development within the program service area. The service area extends from John Paul Landing basin at the upstream end to Greenhouse basin at the downstream end. Development within the program is planning to expand west/upstream of SH99 within the limits of Harris County Water Control and Improvement District No. 159 (HC WCID 159). An agreement is required with HC WCID 159 to specify the terms and conditions of construction within Flood Control District right-of-way to provide detention mitigation, to specify obligations for associated work within TxDOT SH99 right-of-way, and to compensate Harris County/Flood Control District for the development’s use of existing detention mitigation volume within the John Paul Landing detention basin.
Expected Impact:
Provide regional detention benefit for new development within the Upper Langham Creek Frontier Program. Ensure development and analysis occurs in accordance with program guidelines and Flood Control District criteria. Ensure construction occurs in accordance with HCFCD/HC/TxDOT requirements. Receive compensation for previously excavated detention mitigation volume within John Paul Landing basin that will be utilized by development.
